The total size of Holland is 41,500 km2, of which 7,700 km2 is water. The three main rivers (the Rhine, the Meuse and the Scheldt) enter Holland and branch out until they eventually reach the North Sea. Over a quarter of the country is under sea level. With this much water (both fresh and salty), Holland is perfectly suited for a water sport holiday. Popular options are sailing, boating, windsurfing, kite surfing, diving, angling etc. The most prominent water provinces are Friesland (Frisian Lakes) and Zeeland (North Sea, Lake Grevelingen, Eastern Scheldt). The infrastructure is also perfectly suited for sailing from one town to another, using scenic water routes. Visit Holland!
